BITS N BYTES Posted September 11, 2005 Report Posted September 11, 2005 I am completing my NS Designer application by adding three more languages [total of four] using the label switching method. Works just fine. HOWEVER! Many of the screens use text that stays the same in all languages. Since the text object is a "Functional object" in NS Designer I must enter the same text four times [once for each language] in the label data for the text object. Is there any other method to generate text that is independent of the label attribute so I only need to enter the label data once? If there is a fixed text object in the NS-Designer application, I just have not been able to find it!! Any ideas please.
Jay Anthony Posted September 11, 2005 Report Posted September 11, 2005 The only way that I can see to do it would be to use a paint program and create bitmaps. I actually do have users that employ this method. What is common about the same language text that allows this with multiple languages? Can you post an example or a screenshot?
Nibroc Posted September 12, 2005 Report Posted September 12, 2005 ... I think it is possible to export the project (or parts of it) to a .CSV file, you can then edit the labels with Excel which should make it easier. After this you can import the changes. Nibroc
BITS N BYTES Posted September 12, 2005 Author Report Posted September 12, 2005 I am very familiar with the CSV import/export function mentioned by Nibroc. Jay, here is post of screen [if I can get it to work!!!!] Left and Right columns change with language. Other text does not.
